Nice! I also dig the debadged look on the trunk. That color is way better than Coastal Blue IMO.
Did you keep your stock wheels when you got the Signatures?

It's definitely a darker blue than coastal, but has its range. There's shades of aqua and purple, in the right lighting. I am biased, but I prefer it as well. There's another guy with a 2022 Wave 4BW close enough to me, that I can honestly say I've passed him more times than I can count on one hand; we have our own Jeep wave.
There was 40 something wave metallic 4BW's in 2022, I find it comical that there's two that close to each other. I took delivery in July (2022) and passed him on the road my first time before September, talk about a comical reality check. I think there's a third one within an hour drive as well.
The 2022's came without the blackwing badges (V badges only), I ultimately added them on the sides, but I had already debadged the rear. I plan to have the car polished in the spring and I think I will have the badges taken off the sides at that point too.
I just got the SV903's in September, but I did keep my factory wheels; they will serve as my winter wheel setup (I run X-Ice 255 35 square) and my track wheels, going forward. I am kicking around the idea of powder coating them bronze after the winter, now that I have another set of Chrome.

Awesome I love the color. I’m biased too because my Camaro is Riverside Blue Metallic. Which is NOT the same color because Cadillac and Chevrolet have no affiliation whatsoever
I wonder how many they made in 2023.
Good idea on the wheels. Glad to see you’re driving your 4BW in all seasons.
